In fact, I would say that Anita chick intentionally keeps it stirred up so she has some sort of importance and has capitalized on it a lot. I bet she is making 6 figures off of interviews and speaking at all these conferences. Without keeping the controversy going she is a nobody again.
A lot like Al Sharpton. She has to keep the shite stirring or she'll will be out of a job.

Al, the NAACP, and Jesse have all perfected that over the years. She is just following in their footsteps.

But if they make laws to stop this, then it's going to take away certain freedoms that don't hurt people.
Making it against the law to harass a person with death and rape doesnt take away freedoms that dont hurt people.
It takes away the "freedom" to try to scare the shite out of a person that you don't agree with.
B/c really, what are people who do this doing?
They aren't trying to make a political point. They aren't trying to engage in legitimate discussion. They aren't trying to do anything other than scare somebody into shutting up b/c they don't like them for whatever reason.

I wish I could say I was surprised at the course this thread has taken but sadly I'm not.
Many TD.com posters have a real problem with not even attempting to see a point of view that falls outside of their experience. Or hell in this situation even thinking about how you would feel if your sister was being subjugated to this kind of treatment. Y'all are pathetic.

My sister would be smart enough to ignore it and go on with her life.

you're almost coming off like you're pro-harassment

Do you honestly think that someone is going to rape and murder a game developer just because she's a woman?
how about the guy in California that shot up the sorority house for no reason other than they were women? i guess next you're going to tell us they had it coming.

the oh so cherished freedom to threaten to kill and or rape someone

No. I'm pro everyone needs not be such a sensitive vag. All the crying and bitching people do about others instead of worrying about themselves and their own irritates me.
Unless something directly affects me in some way, you won't see me complain about much that others do. I have stated that several times on TD.
Things would be a whole lot better if everyone followed that philosophy.

you mean the exact thing you did in starting this thread?
Posted on 3/7/15 at 6:37 pm to Draconian Sanctions
I am pointing out hyperbole. I disagree with them but am I going after anyone over it?
I can still disagree with someone without trying to make them conform to my beliefs. That fits in line with what I stated earlier.

i.e. crying and bitching about others. You're not in the video game industry, so why do you care? If a bunch of girls want to get together and vent about people threatening to kill or rape them, how does that affect you? Why can't you practice what you preach?
Stop being such a sensitive vag.

I actually love this response.
"Hey! You can't comment on someone bitching and moaning because that makes you a hypocrite because you are now bitching and moaning! Therefore you position is invalid in a circular logic sorta way!"
You know though, that actually means that your position is invalidated because you, DS, are bitching and moaning about other people bitching and moaning about someone else bitching and moaning.
Such a sad state we are in.

So just because I keep to myself and don't try to force my beliefs on others, I can't have a discussion about things that do interest me?
Your logic is horrible and I know it's just because you're trying to get me in a "gotcha" moment. It's your M.O. on this board because you think you're smarter than everyone and you have to win every argument you get in.
Earlier you said "many TD.com posters have a real problem with not even attempting to see a point of view that falls outside of their experience" yet you are one of the worst here about always having to be right and if someone disagrees with you then they are the one that is wrong.
Sounds like you're the one needing to practice what you preach.

Aha, but I never claimed my personal philosophy was to mind my own business and not bitch about things other people are saying that don't affect me.
stout can post about whatever he wants, but he's violating his own mantra with this thread. This wasn't a proposal to institute a new law or anything. This was literally a bunch of girls sitting in a room venting about the shitty things a bunch of virgin mongrels said to them on the internet. I can't think of anything that affects his life any less than that. yet here he is, bitching and moaning about it.

It will affect an interest of mine if things in the industry change to bow to the pressure put on it because of a few women crying foul.
I don't mean devs crying about the threats as this whole ordeal is much larger than that. Anita Sarkisian is on a quest to change games as a whole instead of letting devs do as they please and as PC as everyone tries to be in today's world I have little doubt her and others will influence some changes going forward.
